Evaporator coil remove/repair need video

Pumps often leak at the seams when the fail, or a bad hose or O-ring or damage to the condenser core are the most common problems. The orifice tube should be replaced when the system is serviced or at lease checked and cleaned.

I replaced everything and made the AC work in my Choptop. A number of people think I’m nuts for that in something that I can remove the doors and top, but when it’s like 85* and 2000% humidity with rain and I hit traffic somewhere, it sure is nice to get some cool air blowing at you.

So armed with this info seems, if I want I can remove all these parts without affecting the vehicle? Correct?

If you remove all of it and don't repair or replace the housing, you will not have heat/defrost function to clear your windshield on foggy, rainy days.

Just remember that melted ductwork is also there for your heating system. By 1996, I'm not sure they offered non-AC trucks any more. So you may not be able to find a non-AC housing that fits, such as the one someine pictured up above. I believe that picture is an earlier unit.

They did but they didn't use special non-A/C housings anymore. The 1998 I had, did not have A/C but still had the housing for it. The holes where the tubing came out were either plugged or not cut to allow for the tubing, I can't remember which. But that housing was still in the way for any work I needed to do on that side.

Oh, it's still there. It's just WAAAAY slower with out the A/C system to remove the moisture from the air.

Every time he mentions getting rid of "all of it", I envision him not replacing the housing. That would mean no blower and no way to contain and direct the air.
